So, I have been running Calkulin's ROMs forever... I've stuck to GB because it was the most stable (at the time), I recently decided to try ICS, but EVERY ICS ROM I've tried, and every ICS modem I've tried, I've run into the SAME issue..
I get crappy service, where I had 3-4 bars before, I'm now getting 1 or roaming... If I reset the phone, it magically works again, displaying the 3-4 bars I had previously..
I've checked all my settings, and tried multiple ROMs, and all exhibit the same issues.. I've tried FF11 and FF18 and the issue still persists.
And..Pandora doesn't work.... It'll stick on loading, or buffer to 2% and hang, then switch to the next song, and repeat the cycle... But only when on 3G/4G, if I'm on wi-fi, it works perfectly...
If I had to take a guess, it would appear modem related (all data/signal issues), but no one else seems to be having the same issues as I.
Thought? Suggestions?
After more tinkering, FE21 + FE21 agat kernel + Pandora 1.5.15 seems to have fixed all the issues....
I'd still like some input though.
Pandora works fine for me on ICS, same with the modems, not sure what the problem might be, just saying it works

I'm having the exact same problem on my Nexus S 4G, as of last Friday.
Running latest CM9 nightly with default CM9 kernel.
Only way it will stream is over wifi.
Will try loading an older version of Pandora and see if that helps.
I'm getting nowhere with Pandora...
Still unable to stream anything unless i'm on wifi.
Have wiped everything and even installed stock ICS rom for my Nexus S.
Oddly enough it works if I go back go Gingerbread...
So it was just a kernel / app version issue for you?
Think the sprint multimedia proxies have anything to do with it? My evo shift did the same thing stock until I zeroed them out.
I'm using an old modded version of Pandora. Today I discovered that if I'm running airblock (airpush ad blocker) that the cover art doesn't display and sometimes the loudness levels of songs differ greatly. I disabled the blocker and everything worked as it should. I don't know if Pandora and airpush are using the same servers or ports but there seems like there might be some correlation between them.
Running Blu Kuban based on ICS on my E4GT and pandora runs flawlessly. Don't know if that is a source of help or aggravation.

Thank you!!!
I disabled AdAway and now Pandora works...
Now the trick is figuring out what I need to exclude from my hosts file to prevent it from breaking Pandora.
I'm running VeNuM's own Boa + FF18 kernel/modem. Earlier today while sitting in my car in the parking lot of WalMart I downloaded and used Pandora for the very first time to test out my new portable rechargeable Bluetooth stereo speaker from iHome (which sounds great for a little $60 speaker). Pandora worked without a hitch and sound was flawless.
I have AdAway on my phone (running PH's ICS atm) and have never had issues with Pandora. Amazon's streaming, otoh, has been a complete pain and almost unusable.

and of course today it is broken again
Tried changing the multimedia proxies also, still no go.
Wednesday and today, pandora was really running like ****. Sounds like they need an enema for their internet pipes.

That sounds like proxy blocking (if there is such a thing). Works on everything but 3/4g

Pandora works on wifi and 4g but not on 3g on any ICS rom. It does work on stock el29 on 3g though. I've tried installing a couple of stock leaked ICS and only installed pandora and it still doesnt work on 3g. I'd go back to el29 but i really dont like it. I found a modified pandora apk that is v1.5.15 and it has the same issues so i dont think its the newer version that is causing the issue. If there is anything else i can try, i would greatly appeciate it.
Downloading 1.5.10 worked for me

I am also having the same issue's that everyone else is having. But, I would like to add that I can confirm that when Pandora was on EL29, it worked flawlessly. Not so much now.
I'm using Adaway as well, no problems here with Pandora on 3G. Maybe try Adaway?
Using 1.6 on stock FF18 deodexed rom with FF18 modem and Agat's 0.2.1 kernel. Haven't had any issues with it so far.

It seems like since I have been using gingerbread 2.3.4 I am having some major bluetooth issues. My devices seem to disconnect at random both my headset and car system. I will check my phone setting in bluetooth and it is not showing any devices even paired, or even there at all. I have to reboot the phone and then they may or may not show up. Another issue is contacts taking forever to show up in my car pioneer system. They show up sometimes and sometimes they don't. When they don't I look in the settings and sure enough even though my phone is connected to the car there are no devices showing in the settings. Another thing that happens is even though I have gotten out of the car and shut it off, my phone will stay connected to the pioneer system. It does this on our truck's system as well so it is not the pioneer. The truck is a Ford f150 and uses sync. When I was on 2.2 SF 1.2 I had zero BT problems, in fact I am back on it and my contacts show up on my car instantly now.
My question is this, is this a know problem, is anyone else having BT issues. I searched but could find nothing on this.
Thanks.
I have had zero bluetooth issues on the Gingerbread leaks but only use a cheap Samsung earpiece, no fancy car docks or anything. Have you tried different leaks and installed the EG22 modem?
I have a Moto Finiti Bluetooth and another cheaper one. They have seemed to be working perfect for me

If you Odin'd that in then you probably also have the EG22 modem as your baseband. I am on Bonsai B14 EG22 based ROM.
Yes try it from scratch and check it each step of the way to find out where the issues develop.
I have the same problem periodically with my Audi. I'm on SRF 1.2 Genocide kernel, EC05 modem.

Any ideas of what could be causing this problem or how to resolve it?
Since I went back to SF 1.2 I am not having near the issues I did. My contacts show up within seconds now.
Hey guys,
I've clicked around a bit but can't seem to find anyone with the same issue, and I went through about 40 pages on Calkulin's ROM but I really don't want to go through all 200 and some if somebody here can provide a solution.
I've used his ROMs for the past year, really fantastic, no complaints at all. I flashed his beta ICS build a few months ago and it worked well with the exception that it would randomly reboot for no apparent reason. I could be in the middle of a text message or it could be sitting on my desk and all of a sudden, reboot. I went back to his old ROM and decided to put off ICS for a few months to work out the bugs. Today I put his newest ICS ROM up and once again, random reboots. It doesn't seem that others are having the same problem so I'm not sure what to make of it. And for the sake of putting it out there, it's always a clean install - Format All, flash modem and ROM.
Anybody have any ideas? Suggestions? Any help is seriously appreciated.
Thanks guys.
Ive heard of someone else having this issue before have you tried a fresh install with a new download of EL29 or EL26? When i have had issuez in the past that could be the culprit try a new download also you could try one of the new kernals posted that may help as well.

Are you using 4g?? This is a known issue with leaving 4g enabled.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
It is a known issue that if the hacked Hotspot is installed and you are running on 4G that you will experience random reboots. Mijjah74 has implemented a fix for it in his ROMs and it is beginning to go out among the other developers as well.
Until your developer implements the fix the cure is to not use 4G.
Awesome, thanks a ton. What a goofy bug. Yes I frequently use 4g, hourly even, and although I rarely use the hot spot, it is installed. I wonder if un installing it would fix the issue.
Thanks again.
Any idea if using am older modem would fix it?

No, reinstalling won't help. I was testing 4g for this and (for me at least) it would reboot at about exactly the 1 hr mark if 4g is running constantly. Pretty strange but it did it several times in a row that way. I think someone said that they have the timing down pretty well and I can't recall exactly what the recommendation was, turn 4g off and back on right before it's going to reboot (you should time yours to see when it does it). Something like that.
Addendum: FYI, I'm running stock EL29 modem. A different modem won't change the 4g reboot issue either, sorry.
I had random reboots on every ROM. I went all the way back to stock unrooted, and started back over. Haven't has any issues since.

Has anyone else had constant wifi issues with ics based roms? For example my range seems like it jas dropped dramtically. And if I leave my wifi on and set my phone down even for a small length of time amd pick it back up to browse the web or perform any internet based actiony device just hangs for a while. Its almost like it might be a wifi wake issue. Its really anoying and most times i have to switch between 3g and wifi just to get an internet connection back. I have seen this on all ics flavors i have ran so far. I am currently running a fresh install of ff18 i wanted to have that as my base to try and deduce what the issue could be....

FWIW I have noticed similar with FF18 - didn't have these issues with FF02, the prior build that I had on this phone. I don't get the wi-fi sleep that people mention but I do see the signal drop and the occasional delays in apps. Also did a full flash but copied previous wpa_supplicant.conf due to need for custom file.

Like you they didn't appear until I flashed FF18. I'm considering flashing the FF02 modem to see if this corrects - I'll let you know what happens.
(Odd since there shouldn't be any changes in this process since FE26...)
Yeah try a different modem. The FF modems seem to have issues but FD26 works good for me all around

Flashed FD26 modem everything else is still FF18 right away I noticed better wifi performance but it is still a little early to tell. But apps dont seem to lag anymore while attempting to connect to the internet. And wifi seems to find the routers right away and connect almost instantly. Also while going almost out of wifi range I am still getting a signal and able to surf the internet. Before if I was almost out of range I couldnt do anything and had to drop my wifi connection and switch to 3g. So these are the things I have noticed so far but I will continue testing and report back.
On a side note I had an office space sound board installed it was 20 or so MB and after flashing the model it was uninstalled and everytime I try and reinstall it I get an error that says "Can not install onto sd card" I thought this was really crazy and should be completely unrelated. Yet now I cant reinstall this app. So I am wondering if there is some kind of bug in FD26 though could possibly inhibit certain apps from being written to the sd card?
Hi,
I'm running the latest CM10 (Linaro). My Wi-Fi connection constantly drops for a few seconds then reconnects. It was doing this on CM9 as well. Not sure about what it did when stock (wasn't stock for long).
Is this an issue with the Kindle, or with the rom(s)? Is there a hardware update? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
mike
Seems to be a common gremlin with custom ROMs. There are a few that don't drop, or as often. Gotta test em all.

Thanks. I just did a full wipe and installed [ROM][10/10/2012] Unofficial AOKP Jellybean Build 4.
Same problem. I suspect if I went back to a stock rom, the wifi issue would disappear. But no way... this Jellybean build is fricken awesome.
Might a different kernel help? Could it be that I just have a lemon?

This sounds like a hardware problem. While there have been some wifi issues in the past, these have been resolved. Dropping constantly is hardware. Reload stock and exchange it with Amazon.

I installed the stock rom (MoDaCo Custom ROM). The wi-fi seems to be working great.
Maybe I'll just leave it stock. It's not so bad once I put Go Launcher on!
- Update - I did a thorough wipe of everything, installed the latest CM10 (SEMI-NIGHTLY] CM10 + 4AI.1.7 KERNEL [STABLE). WiFi seems to be working properly now.
Thanks,

Mine is/was doing this on CM10 SGT7, but I think it's application specific. Some apps kick the wifi off constantly, like every 20 seconds, while it can stay on perfectly fine on others. If I shut down all apps I seem to stay online just fine. I'll keep experimenting and see what is doing it. I'm also wondering if it's a combination of the KF and my DIR-655 router, which doesn't like some devices anyway and maybe just has a conflict with this one for some reason.
Anyway I'm going to keep testing the SGT7 before wiping and switching. I'm also going to wipe and reinstall SGT7 because if it was really a ROM-specific problem it would probably be identified as a problem for a lot more people using those ROMs and be listed as such.
I'm guessing it's a problem that some versions of the KF have, but is also due to a few specific apps and how they access data. I just hope it's not Chrome that's doing it.
WiFi Drops
I'm running straight up Hashcode's ROM 4.1.2 / Kern 3.0.31+ (Oct 10 2012). It's been an ongoing issue. Not sure how someone can say "It's hardware related" when stock amazon rom doesn't have this issue. I've been able to recreate it almost 100% using a torrent client (aTorrent, etc) soon as bandwidth hits about 300kb range, the wifi turns to an off setting. Seems if you don't throttle the connection somewhat, the system drops the network layer completely as a out of control app?
I'm going to try a wipe/update and see what happens. It's very annoying trying to get sypebeta installed when its downloader just goes full balls to the wall and dumps at nearly 90% every time
I have a d2tmo GS3 and been running CM10 nightlys. It is alright but I sometimes have BT trouble between the phone and the car and so I am looking to see if there is another ROM that will work better for me.
I am mainly looking for a relatively vanilla JB ROM. Don't need or care to much about fancy stuff. Its ok if it has extra features as long as they don't cause problems. More than anything else, I want a stable ROM that works correctly.
There are two problems I am having with BT.
The first is that the phone does not always auto connect for music with my car. It used to also have trouble connecting for phone, but a recent nightly build seems to have fixed that.
The second is that when it does connect, it automatically starts playing a random file (it did this with the stock ROM as well). For some reason my Nexus S didn't do this with either ICS or JB vanilla Android. My understanding is that this is cause the phone is getting an autoplay signal from the car. I am hoping there is an Android version that can be set to ignore this request.

I'm actually having the same problem with auto-connect I have a thread going as well. I am running wicked JB which is TW based so close to stok and thats my only problem so far
Just to be clear, when I say "vanilla JB" I mean JB like google intended, not neccesarilty GS3 stock rom.
